Player: TE Izaiah Gathings
Stock Value: Purchased
Reasoning: The Steelers continue to add to the tight end position with the latest signing of Izaiah Gathings. A first-year former college free agent, Gathings spent time on the Kansas City Chiefs’ practice squad in 2023. A converted wide receiver, he will try to make his way in a crowded Steelers tight-end room under Arthur Smith.
It seems the Pittsburgh Steelers want to make sure new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith has tight ends. With the signing of first-year Izaiah Gathings, they now have six, though they each bring something different to the table.
